Statewide Super chief executive Richard Nunn said: “After undertaking a service provider review we found their [NAS’] offering was still the best fit for our needs.”

“NAB’s in-region support and face-to-face service model is extremely important for our business. Their digital performance platform StatPro, which provides detailed attribution and risk scenario analysis, will be an important tool for our Investment team,” Nunn said.

He added the partnership is “critical as we develop and grow our business for the benefit of our members.”

NAB Asset Servicing executive general manager John Comito said he is excited to continue the long-term relationship.

“South Australia is an extremely important market, not just for Asset Servicing but the broader NAB enterprise. We believe it is our flexible and service-oriented approach that put us in the best position to be selected by the Statewide Super team,” Comito said.

Statewide Super is a AAA-rated fund as assessed by SelectingSuper. Its default MySuper option was ranked number one for performance in the three years to 30 June, 2016
